Quote# 2267

I guess those scientists (pseudo-scientists- (1 Timothy|6:20 O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called) are pretty close - let's see they say 13.7 billion and yet since Genesis 1:1 was less than 10,000 years ago that makes the scientists only off by 13.6999 billion years - close but no cigar.

[On the Big Bang]And since this is still a theory, it is in the unproven catagory. So in essence, it is also not 'concrete'.

[Replying to 'do you have a single fact that proves the Bible?']Yes, we are ALIVE and medical science doesn't have the foggiest notion as to why?

Quote# 2270

and it is also my opinion that in the end - whenever that may be - everything will be revealed to us, INCLUDING why it is that there is such a vast amount of knowledge that seems to contradict what the Bible says. Until such time, I'll eagerly read scientific textbooks and novels and Christian textbooks and novels, but I will run everything I learn through that 'Biblical' filter. And as I've said a bunch of times before, if that means I'm viewed as irrational by proponents of science....well, I really don't give a red

Quote# 2271

You do not know if dinos could breathe fire. You have not seen a living dino and cannot see if it does or not. However, we have the eyewitness account of those who did see dinos (the term was dragon then though) and say they did breathe fire (who knows? Maybe breath hot enough to cause flamables to burst into flames?). These people were not only Christians/Jews in the Bible, but from many other cultures as well.

[Replying to 'Well, let's see, since no airplane, rocket, or satellite has ever plowed into this 'storehouse' [of snow mentioned in Job, I think it's safe to assume that it's not just me who says it, but basic observable reality itself. Why do you believe this?]Because to answer God's question to Job, no, I am not smart enough to pretend to know where this is. And like it or not, neither are you or any scientist." [Replying to 'Do you mean to tell me, then, that somewhere up there, there are storehouses of snow, even though no one has seen them, and all known climatalogical science goes against it?']I didn't say that, God said that. I just believe Him.

Quote# 2273

[When someone says he can't be serious about literal 'storehouses of snow' above the upper atmosphere]No, I'm not joking. You say they aren't there because we can't find them. I say we cant find them because they are supernatural. Same as the Space shuttle having never bumped into heaven in orbit. You see the physical result of the supernatural [i][i.e., snow][/i].

[Continuing on the 'storehouses of snow']God says so. That's enough for me. I didn't say I had to understand it, see it or be able to prove it. God is way smarter than I am, I can't tell you all He knows.

Quote# 2275

[Replying to 'why aren't you arguing against the hydrological cycle?']Because I believe this "hydrological cycle" is what we physically can observe of snow but there is a supernatural, yet required element we cannot observe as well.

Explain to me exactly in your own words why the atom can stay together and why the electrons do not crash into the nucleus. I'm asking this because there seems to be a general refusal of any visitation to any of MY links to Dr. Dino and such. If you had actually gone to his website to seek for your answers, you may have actually learned something.

Quote# 2279

Why would anyone wish to be an atheist? You have absolutely no hope beyond the grave... nor do your children! What a frightening thought! All you have to look forward to is eternity in the grave. My life has meaning and purpose beyond that which I place on it. You cannot say the same for your lives. My life is eternal, yours is temporary. There is a Supreme Being who has a plan for my future, you have nobody and no future and you spend hours here waisting what time you have left. I will never understand the atheist mindset?

Quote# 2280

as for DNA, God created DNA as a way for us to regulate our own bodies. he may have put that centromere remnant on the 23rd chromosome [exactly matching two fused ape chromosomes, like evolution predicts] as a simple test of faith: whether or not you believe that God put us here in the first place.

On the point of multiple religions. Have you ever compared other religions to Christianity? Did you know the Bible has yet to be found in error?

Lets take the second most prominent religion on Earth, Islam, and compare. The sacred books for Islam is the Koran and Hadith. There are numerous errors in both books for example 3 or 4 ways that Allah said how he created the first humans.

Quote# 2283

So, to make a long story short, 42 'kids' sought out Elijah as he was ascending to Heaven, and mocked God and Elijah's ascent into Heaven. All Elijah did was pronounce God's curse on the kids. God chose to send 2 bears to kill them. Now, I won't defend God, because, well, God is God, and I don't think He needs 'defending.' But this to me doesn't exactly sound like God slaughtered 42 people just because a kid threw a pebble and called Elijah 'baldy.' It sounds more like God pronounced His judgment upon people who mocked Him and His prophet.

I give up trying to witness to people... Maybe it wasn't put in the best context but i was trying to point something out quite simply - a holy righteous book from Islam's god talking about peeing in someones ear, passing gas, supporting Jihad, beating women, spending paradise having sex with women and young boys etc. You can look for all the Islamic apologetics you want - a holy god would not condone that disgusting behavior.

My evolution vs creation education comes from the fact that I have a degree in Old Testament history and eschatology and have studied this for 30 years.

Quote# 2286

I have thoroughly studied the ATOM and have a Master's degree in physics and chemistry. Because of that, I can honestly tell you that the existance of the ATOM itself is proof beyond a shadow of a doubt that God created it. Evolution, as it is taught is public schools, is atheistic evolution and we all know it... that the ATOM is a product of random chance and nothing more. After studying the ATOM I know that it can never be a product of random chance, but that of intelligent design. My study of atomic engery and the atom qualifies me to argue against atheistic evolution... which is what is taught to our school children in public schools.

Quote# 2287

I will strike at the heart of the matter and state that the atheistic position is just sickening. Some, or even most, may have and abide by good morals, but that isn't the point. To follow by a belief that would allow you to go out and murder, char, rape, and even molest kids and, then, regarding those actions just as much good as bad is just sickening and cannot be denied that it isn't sickening.

Quote# 2289

We have a few slight problems when it comes to the idea that every Israelite from all time will be raised and will be saved. The first problem is that the Pharisees committed the one sin that Jesus said would never be forgiven of them-- these people were full-out biological Jews. (THE UNFORGIVABLE SIN BEING SAYING JESUS WAS THE INCARNATION OF EVIL RATHER THAN THE SON OF GOD, AS BEING A JEW IS A BLESSING FROM GOD).
